Year 262 AC
Mud slides block the major pass in the Tsalagi Mountains. Trade only gets through in fits and starts, but slowly, with the work of prison gangs, the pass is finally cleared. Trade is slow for the next few years, as many people on both sides of the mountains have found different sources for most of the products, though they are more expensive in some cases.

Year 258 AC
This year's winter is especially harsh. Feet of snow fall in areas that normally see no or very minimal snow. Many starve, for they are not prepared for such snow levels for so long, and some merely freeze to death, because they are not prepared for the cold for so long. The priests of Furere say that he is not pleased with his tithes or the working of his priests. Some say they sacrifice people in hopes of pleasing him and stopping the snap of snow.

The Battle of Crossriver is the bloodiest battle since before the Chaos Wars. Thousands of people are killed, many thousands more are wounded. The acres and acres of blood, fire and destruction is so bad that the wildlife avoids the area. The battle becomes a truce for the trading between east and west. The leaders of the the major cities come together and make trade agreements. There is still tension, but things no longer escalate to killing of caravans.

East clashes with west. The militias attack each others caravans near the center of eastern Taina, so trade becomes nonexistent between the east coast and the Tsalagi Mountains. The dwarves begin to trade heavily with the eastern cities, while the cities on the west side of the Tsalagi Mountains brave the few passes to trade with the western cities.

This year's Gathering does not happen. With all the death and destruction between west and east, no one is willing to travel to Gathering. The city is unhappy about the outcome, but blames the eastern cities, not the militias of the west. Trade is at a complete stand still, but no one wants to stand down.

The massacre at Boulder Ridge becomes a rally cry for the western cities. The small trading stop over is accused of banditry, which they deny, tensions rise, and something sets off the eastern militia causing them to kill most of the men folk, along with a large chunk of women and children. Caravans from the east are set upon and few, if any, are left alive. The supplies are taken and used to start building a western militia.

Caravans heading from the east are being raided by bandits. Strangely, only merchants carrying items from the eastern cities seem to be affected. Mercenaries are hired and small forts are put up by the larger cities of the east and manned to stop the bandits.

Tensions rise between the large eastern cities and the farming communities near the foothills of the Easter Tsalagi Mountains. The small communities, (and cities, in some cases), believe the eastern cities are overcharging them for goods and underpaying them for goods they send to market. The eastern cities scoff, especially since they don't believe the western cities can do much about it.
